When
talking about Accra accommodation, the first thing that comes to mind
may be a hotel in the heart of Ghana's busy capital. After all, it is
the 11th largest metropolitan area in Africa, with a population of
over 4 million people. The country's seat of government, Osu Castle,
is located here along with a good number of major offices and banks.
And with a wide range of landmarks and monuments also found here,
such as the famous Independence Square and the National Theater,
Accra is certainly a must-visit destination for avid urban travelers.
With
all of these in the metro, it's easy to see why most travelers gloss
over the fact that Accra also boasts of magnificent beaches. And it's
probably one of the few places in the world where people won't have
to choose between a city holiday and a beach getaway because they can
enjoy both.
These
beaches are mostly found to the south of the metropolis, where the
city is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean. One of them is Bojo Beach,
which is only a 30-minute drive from Kotoka International Airport and
40 minutes from the downtown area. Hence, city travelers won't need
to travel far just for a taste of the ocean.
Bojo
Beach is also located near the Accra-Winneba Highway and found near a
range of tourist attractions such as Elmina Castle and Kakum National
Park. That's another reason why it's a convenient stopover for
tourists who want to take a break from urban sightseeing and soak up
the sun or enjoy the waves instead.
However,
it's not just good enough for a day trip. With the Bojo
Beach Resort in Accra, it's also perfect for travelers who desire
a longer stay. The property offers 35 luxurious rooms and suites,
most of which feature high ceilings, custom furniture, and views of
the ocean or the city's skyline. Touches of traditional design, such
as the vibrant prints on the bed linen, recreate that unique African
vibe in each lodging.
Of
course it doesn't end at just great accommodation. Accra tourists
will find a range of facilities and activities at this resort to make
their stay worthwhile. For instance, guests can go jetskiing in the
Atlantic Ocean instead of simply swimming about. Or they can opt for
a dip in the swimming pool instead and enjoy drinks from the poolside
bar afterward. A selection of services, which includes an airport and
city shuttle service, make it convenient for them to go out and
about.
So
whenever anyone brings up the topic of Accra accommodation again,
don't think about just another hotel in the city. Come and stay at
Bojo Beach Resort instead.
